I don't have a mathematical system of figuring these, it is opinion based. Just scouting rosters, previous games, and preference.

1 Port Moody vs. 5 Tradewest
Somehow Port Moody put up an offense over Listowel. Looking at the roster a second time, I don't know what I was thinking, there is talent on first, second, and even third string. This offense is deep, and their defensive line is intimidating. But Battletoads are the biggest passers in the league, and the Megalodon's DBs are outmatched. The bigger story is Tradewest's defense being outmatched, and their O-Line may get tired after halftime. Harbaugh will need a quick release, and can't afford any turnovers or sacks. This one will be clsoe to halftime, then Port Moody proves why they're the number 1. Megalodon advances to the Western Conference finals (33-16).
2 Laval vs. 3 Vancouver
Vancouver showed in the opening round they can handle the playoff pressure, now we'll see if they can do it on the road, against the defense that has proven time and again they are the best in the West. Laval's offense has no depth, and Vancouver has 120 monster defenders, all of which are up to the challenge. The rematch still favors Laval however, no upset here (15-6).
1 Lancaster vs 5 Quebec
Lancaster struggled in their first game, and Quebec showed they can pull off the upset. Quebec has the highest level QB in the league, and Lancaster's top CBs are a return specialist and an inactive. By levels, Quebec has the advantage here, but they took their time forming the team, and they have low chemistry with each other. I think Parker is too good to throw any INTs, but I foresee a few drives sputtering to a hault in the redzone. The difference is that Lancaster won't even see the redzone. They may get one or two big bombs, but I still believe that Marion the Barbarian is overrated, and will struggle. Fishbein will lead Quebec to the biggest upset of the playoffs, Quebec moves on in a nailbiter (18-14).
2 Puvirnituq vs. 3 Notre Dame
I love this matchup, but its not my place to make predictions. This is the most exciting game of the season. Irish, good luck, although luck has nothing to do with it.
